psalm 23

the lord is my shepherd:
I have everything that I need.
he makes me lie down in green pastures;
he leads me beside the still waters;
he refreshes my soul.
he guides me on the paths of righteousness,
so that I may serve him with love.
though I walk through the darkest valley
or stand in the shadow of death,
I am not afraid,
for I know you are always with me.
you spread a full table before me,
even in times of great pain;
you feast me with your abundance
and honor me like a king,
anointing my head with sweet oil,
filling my cup to the brim.
surely goodness and mercy will follow me
all the days of my life,
and I will live in god's radiance
forever and ever.
